The top looks just as nice as the base. Thanks for the update.

Great looking top. Nice job.

yah, I think the dust this showing under your jointer is sawdust from my hair, sticking to my screen with static electricity.

Someone is going to make a comment about what hair!

But, just ignore them.

bbqking,

This table turned out really nice and I like the 1” thickness that you left the top. It will add some additional stability to the piece.

Nice comment on the sawdust. I thought I had made that observation. :) I get yelled at when I do something like that. But this just makes a shop look like it is being used. After all it is a shop and generating sawdust is what we do.

Thanks for the post.

Looks a lot better with the top, that’s for sure.

I almost alwas have sawdust under my planer and jointer. Too much trouble to get it out and it can’t fall any farther.

That is one fine table. Good work.

Great table. I love the proportions.

Good choice on the rift-sawn choice. I like the hint of flecking, as well.

The little trash can under the dust port is hilarious, though.

Great table. I like the runners on the bottom of the base. Looks cool.

A great looking library table, & great craftsmanship.

I have the parts of an old library table similar to yours.

A friend gave it to me , because it came unglued at every joint, even the tabletop.

It must have been stored in a real damp place.

I plan on using the wood on a future project.
